I also had wonderful discussions on the emerging epistemologies in critical disaster studies, including communicating risks and preparedness, with Prof @kschmutina.bsky.social and Prof Thomas Tufte.

Thank you to my family for being my hands in preparing the packages & my collaborators who defied the threats of flooding to deliver this aid.
To agencies, please check on the homes in Tanedo Subdivision & the households in the opposite village.

Our package will not cover their needs for a long time but we hope that it could bridge their needs up to when support from government and other established humanitarian organizations would come.

Our research team sent food relief packages to our community partners in Irawan, Puerto Princesa. We were just speaking with them about their experiences on flooding back in January.

These are not just objects. They are pieces of the human spirit, imbued with memory and meaning. They remind us that disasters do more than disrupt—they leave behind stories, etched in the things we hold onto.

And in the Philippines, a metal basin lies tucked away, its edges still worn from that night. It floated to a man who was saving strangers while his own family waited for help. He keeps it not as a tool, but as a witness—a memento of a moment when he chose others over himself.
